what floridians do when it snows


it's the second weekend in march and it decides to snow. not just any snow. a full foot of snow. that's more than i've seen in louisville in the three years i've been here... combined.
there we were, all excited about spring, warm air, grass growing, planting a garden again, grilling, lazy sunny afternoons, sandals, and sweating. sorry shorts and t-shirts, mother nature says not yet.

so what do floridians do when it snows like this? first, they put on all of their clothing. not just a jacket, they put on literally everything that they own. then, they buy cheap sleds at walmart and race down the biggest hill they can find. 
yeah, we looked like tourists. so what. we're from florida. we deserve to be the tourists every now and then.
